Llanos De Cortez Waterfall
Escape to the secluded Llanos de Cortez Waterfall.  The water is clear with a white sand bottom and is great for swimming. Climb behind the falls on the rocks or take a hike around to the top of the waterfall as well.

The 40ft wide and 30ft. high spectacle cascades down the front of a brilliant green backdrop and washes into a white sand pond. 

Look for the turn off to the Llanos de Cortez Waterfall right near the small town of Bagaces. If you are heading from Liberia you will see a sign on the right hand side of the road. Follow the dirt road and park in the parking area. There is usually someone collecting a small donation or parking fee along the road.

This is a really fun and inexpensive activity to enjoy while you are visiting the Papagayo area. Many tour operators offer this as a tour and include round trip transportation if you don't have a ride..

It is best to visit the Llanos de Cortez Waterfall between late November to early June, as the dirt road often floods in the rainy season.
